A soft tyre on the morning of a shift in Walsall or a hospital run in Coventry? We try to fit the job in if the diary has room, done where the car is parked, with honesty about the journey.
People living along the M6 rely on it for fixed commitments: early shifts at warehouses near Wednesbury, appointments in Coventry, school runs in Castle Bromwich and Great Barr, commutes from Cannock into Birmingham. A slow puncture found first thing is urgent because the car is needed that day. For us the question is whether the drive up from Brent Cross suits your deadline, and you hear a straight answer on that.
Share your departure time and the car's whereabouts. Out on the M6 side, the timing and diary may both suit that day, with a plug kit on the van and a spare tyre in your size, if carried, should the puncture turn out not to be repairable at all. The car does not need moving. On the phone you get an honest arrival estimate and the price, including the distance, so you can choose between waiting and a local fitter.
Other jobs we do at the car include new tyres fitted on the M6 and broken tyre replacement on the M6.
A driveway in Cannock, a staff car park near Wednesbury off J9 or a Coventry car park off the A46, if the site allows it, suits an urgent repair. Repairs never take place on the M6 or its slip roads.

How a mobile puncture repair is done →Emergency tyre repair on the M6 page
Picked up a screw near J5 at Castle Bromwich? Fort Parkway, the A47, runs past The Fort Shopping Park, and Castle Vale is just across the A38, so either gives a flat surface to work on. Ring with the make, the size and roughly where the screw is. A small puncture in the central tread can usually be repaired there; one near the sidewall cannot.
A same-day repair on the M6 depends on planning, so start with a shot of the screw in the tread, the full size read off the rubber and your location pinned. The waiting spot can vary: a drive in Nuneaton, a bay in a Great Barr retail park or a side road in Willenhall off J10. Name the commitment that cannot move, perhaps a shift in Wolverhampton, and we say straight away whether the journey from north London fits it.
